Remixed Arabic :)

Assalamalaykum

Our little kitty cats Faris and Fiza are almost 5 yrs old. They have been learning Arabic for the past 3-4- months now….. they have learnt to read the alphabets and the basic zabar zers…..

While Faris is a very keen to learn child, Fiza doesn’t really enjoy studying…..

Faris sits thru the entire Arabic class (we call a Maulvi home to teach them) and diligently learns everything that is taught….. while Fiza runs away from the table around a hundred times….

Same goes with their school classes as well as their tuition … they both do their work but Faris is actually interested in doing it whereas Fiza is clearly a rebel (and not just with her lessons)…..

We actually got a proof of Faris’s desire to learn when one day Aapa told me that Faris has learnt to ‘write’ aleef bey teh…. I was like ‘Wat rubbish!!!’

I took yearrrrrsssss to write the urdu alphabets (i.e. learnt on my own…without classes---- we were only taught to read in the maktab… not to write….) and I still cant write any urdu word other than my own name….

And here there was this 5 saal ka bacha writing the alphabets !!!

We got a little demo of how he writes on the blackboard at home…. And awwwwww!!! That was the cutest thing on this planet… :) :)

Just look at it…..

Baba has written quite well for a 5 yr old kid who has learnt the alphabets for only 3 months…without ever being taught to write… that means he has learnt it all only by observing…..

Which dumbass says that Arabic cannot be written from the left???? Look!!! There my baby has written it from the left side… :) :) :)

It’s actually a remixed version of the alphabets….

It begins from the wrong side….

Is written in a very…well…. Stylized way ;p

And just like all remixes have English words…. You see my baby has replaced the ‘re’ with an English ‘R’ :p :p :p :p

And after ‘seen’…. He has blended trance music into it…. Nothing is clear…. :p :p

Now isn’t that a smart little DJ Faris ??

;) ;) ;)

White Tigers :)

A conversation between Fiza and her mummy

Fiza : “Mummy, aap kabhi white tiger dekhi hai?”
Mum: “Nahi”
[after a pause]
Fiza: “Aurrrr, kabhi white elephant dekhi hain?”
Mum: (irritated) “Nahee”.
(after thinking for sometime), “Kyu? Tum dekhi hain kya?”

Fiza: “Hum white doggie dekhi hai”.


Mum: awwwwwwwwwwwww *hugs*hugs*

ENJOY

SNIPPETS contd.....

I was really happy to read so much bout my wonderful kids. thanks tanki...i thought of adding certain others also so why not now..........


1. yesterday faris had a small fight with me and he got so pissed off ..i mean for a 4 yr old the anger was great..he picked up 3 books and left the room for outside and declared'hum yeh ghar mein nahin rahega, yeh ghar achha nahin hai' then his baba scolded him and called him inside. He entered the front room and threw the books on the floor and then threw himself on the diwan and the conversation:

me:faris tum kyun ghar chod kar ja raha hai?
faris: yeh ghar achha nahin hai.
me: tum kahan jayega?
faris: hum mumbai jayega mera dost ke paas..
me(shocked) : kaise jayega tum??
faris(cool): plane me jayega.
me: kaise ??usme jaane ke liye to paisa chahiye.faris: mera kapda tay karo (fold my clothes) aur plane mein jaane ke liye paisa do...
he repeated this again while rolling on the floor.

the first dhamki i got from my 41/2 yr old son of leaving the house that too, to mumbai


2. me and fiza were watching ' balika vadhu' in colors. The character 'Anandi' suddenly started crying coz her husband had left her. I simply for fun asked fiza why is she crying.... fiza replied: uska jeevan ka khushi chala gaya hai,woh ladka na usko chod ke chala gaya hai na...
i was dumbstruck wn asked how did she know..she got totally confused as to how did she come to know and replied ''pata nahin mama humko kaisa pata chal gaya'

Assalam alaykum
So…. Peeping into this blog after a million years :) …Faris and Fiza are 4 ½ years old now and have joined LKG at Carmel… yes! After going round and round Naval Public, they are very much in our dear old Mount Carmel… :) and they are really having a jolly good time creating havoc everywhere they go….
Whether it be school, whether it be their own home..or their nana nani’s home :)
I shall be writing a few blog posts just so that I note down some short convos between them and our other family members that had me in splits when I heard them…
They are talking a lot now a days… I mean.. I know it’s strange the way am saying it… but I still cant forget that first moment I had seen them … little dolls :)
And now they have become chalak chatur smart kids…:P
Khair….
The only sad part in this whole thing is that they don’t get their parents as much as we had got our parents. I mean it’s obvious that it’d be so.. but, still… I am just mentioning…..
In this post I shall mention 10 little things bout them….

• Faris absolutely and totally loves watching “Chhota Bheem” on TV, and after he trns off the TV, he goes bout the house behaving like Chhota Bheem and showing his muscles and ‘Proclaiming’ his strength to the whole world, i.e, his nana, nani and the didis. And when he feels like showing off his ‘Bheema strength’….. dishuuuummmmm….. dishuuuuummmm … Hafiza has to get the blows.

• Fiza claims to have fallen in love with a boy in her class (in Nursery.. and is continuing on in LKG) and she even says that she’ll marry him… :) however, the unfortunate boy has already been rejected by his ‘hote-hote-reh-gayi-mother-in-law’… so I don’t think the marriage would ever come to be.. :p

• None of us has seen this boy, I wont write his name coz maybe in future Fiza wud find it ridiculous to be paired wid dis particular guy, ….so, well.. none of us has seen this boy but, Hafiza , whoz kind of a nanny to the kids, has seen. And when my mummy asked her ki “****** kaisa dikhta hai?” she replied, “Bilkullll Fiza ka jaisa…. Gora, patla, mooh mein chukku”. :D

• Faris is very much desirous of breaking down his ‘nana nani ka lakdi ka ghar’. :( .. but well, he says he’ll build nana nani a BIIIIIIIGGGGGGG house when he grows up.

• They call their nana “NANU” and nani “NANIU”…. :) which I think is really sweet… coz ‘Momci’ was something that was taught to them.. but this is something they are calling on their own…. Such “OOization” of names can occur only wen we really feel for someone… I mean, at this age at least…. I have never had feelings for anyone except my abbu, mummy, aapa…. So I find this love for grandparents very sweet.

• They have learnt to write all the alphabets in caps as well as in smalls. And yesterday they both were playing with their nani ….writing on the blackboard…. Faris wrote all the alphabets .. and even asked mummy, I mean his nani, her name and wrote down the full ‘Rehana Shamim’ .. not the name by himself… but he asked her the sequence of the alphabets in her name and wrote it down…. But Miss Fiza went to the blackboard and quickly assumed the role of the teacher and started shouting.. “Koi bhi bacha aake ‘c’ likhke dikhao….KOI bhi bacha” (lookin towards Faris :P)

• We missed their homework that was to be shown on the first day of the School reopening. They were punished :( Faris baba cried a lot :( we all felt very bad :(

• Their tutor’s name is “KIRAN” :) :) which is supergood….. but it’s a male Kiran :x :( which is super bad.

• At this point of time, Faris loves drawing and Fiza loves to dance. Let’s see what hobbies they adopt.

• They are eagerly waiting for me to return coz 1) I shall be bringing them toys 2)they have been told that the key to a certain showcase is with momci and they can get it only when momci returns… this is a lie of course. And wheneve they speak to me over the phone (which is extremeliestly rare) the only things they talk to me are bout the toys and dolls that I shud get for them os that I should not forget to bring the key to the showcase……:P



More of Faris & Fiza later. :P

THE BIG FIGHT

I am writing after a real long time...it is not that i dont have time but i feel sort of confused as what to write...i am not like my sis who can go on and on ( i mean in writing not words...that to i think she rarely speaks). There are so many fights between my kids( they are 4 now) wrt toys,sleeping spaces,tv channels, car seats, parents(means us) and lots more. i want to relate incidents for each one. Lets start with toys ..By nature the hormones are meant to act in such a way in any kid that a boy gets drawn towards cars and girls towards dolls. No dont get me wrong.. even for my kids fiza is inclined towards dolls and faris towards cars but each time they play something goes wrong......................... when fiza starts playing with dolls she plays very nicely , she makes kitchens and bedroom and then she cooks ..she cooks tea and chicken and oats and then when she is in her real best ENTERS MOHAMMED FARIS.and the hormones gets reversed ...he suddenly becomes interested in everything girly.he tries to snatch away her doll and sits in the kitchen and starts making dishes of his own. Fiza as usual screams( she has a nasal twang and her shrill is all the more nasal)and then enters us ...no no we dont succeed in dissuading faris from playing dolls but we try to pacify Fiza . she rolls and pulls everybodys hair and screams and during the whole drama we get MAD. Similarly when Faris plays ...he is like cutest. he makes roads and hills out of pillows and he uses abacus(toy wala) to make the ubad khabad road and ya he uses keys to start the ignition and he has petrol pumps coz he has to refill every now and then. he has his wonderful mouth which he sincerely uses to make all sorts of noises.then Fiza feels that no ...she cant let him play so well so kick to the petrol station, kick to the various cars and again i cut and paste the whole scenario. we pacify fiza WHY????? coz by the time she kicks his cars , he lands a punch on her face or pulls her hair to the extent that it really comes out in his hands....so u see...hormones doesnt work always.
